A rose that once stood alone

A solitary rose grew in the darkest corner of the garden

Surrounded by many others

Yet remained alone

Time passed and trials came and went

One dealt a severe blow

And the rose began to wilt and wither

Forgotten...

Then... as if by a miracle...

There came a soft and gentle breeze

Followed by a ray of light

As all the other roses fell into darkness

The solitary rose began to shine

Shining with a special light...

And watered by a gentle cascade...

A cascade of love

A cascade of selfless affection

"I do... not now but forever..."

Said the rose to the sunlight

And there they remain

A rose in full bloom

With her sunshine smiling down on her...

You are my sunshine, my life, my very soul

And I your rose blooming in the light of your love
